Outside fillet cutter

Post by ssw »

Hello,

I have a 0.125" radius fillet mill/cutter for outside fillets. I have added the tool to my main cutter set and saved it. Now I have assumed that the tool path would be very similar to a chamfer operation, but when I go to select that cutter, only my V-Cutters show up in the list.

Because I am quite new to CNC Machine work I may be approaching this in the wrong way, but a Fillet Mill category is provided by RhinoCAM, so I figured that there must be a MOP for those.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

FilletMILL tools can be used with 2axis profiling, engraving operations. Chamfering operation only supports VeeMILL, ChamferMILL & Taper tool types.

Thank you. I'll proceed with a profiling method.
